Gack. Aussies have become such wussies. Spent this summer there. Started a powerpoint preso with a green laser pointer as a hiliter. Told to put that dangerous offensive weapon away. Offered my Kershaw folder to a friend struggling to open a taped box with a car key. Told to take that thing back to the hotel and hide it or be arrested. Found a good $3 cigar for only $35. Told if I lit it anywhere on the streets of Perth I'd be arrested and fined. Nope, Mad Max and Crocodile Dundee don't live there anymore.
